Linda’s story demonstrates that domestic violence can affect any of us. A successful entrepreneur who owns a Manhattan clothing boutique, Linda was in an abusive relationship for 15 years until she finally broke free. “I want people to understand that there’s no typical face of domestic violence—people think it’s a problem that only affects lower-income and minority groups, but that’s not true.” Help us share her story at #DVfree and visit http:/nyc.org to learn how you can support the campaign and get involved.
